This is just what I needed today, and by telepathic coincidence I was just wondering about Shaq yesterday. Wonderful to see him thrive. Thank you, Niall.

In your time of need, he's your guy.

Hope the clouds are clearing for you again, Niall.

Take good care. 💚

Niall Harbison, you are way too grounded and perceptive to be in any way delusional!! In fact, you are an absolute positive visionary who has the proven ability to change the world for the better. Thank you for helping all the dogs and us humans to get through the tough times. Just remember to look after yourself too!

Yes agree Fiona! so important to look after oneself still- especially as the things you see are so though Niall!! Must be hard to get the balance right when one knows there is always more to do, more doggies to help and rescue..

You are WONDERFUL! In an awful scary world you are finding joy in those poor dogs you have rescued with everyone of your friends there, healed ,fed, nurtured every day… as you say focus on the joy and hope. When the dark cloud hovers get the furbabies around you cuddle kiss and let their love sooth you. If you werent there their lives would be so awful xxKeep the faith !! We are behind you every step!!

It always makes me so happy that you adopted Hankie and now Chance, Niall. It makes me feel reassured to know that they are with you, keeping you company when you're at home. They are such sweet doggos. Watching Chance come alive is such a joy. Thank you for the positive message this week - I agree we do need to focus on those small actions and not give up!
